Singh, We can set the pace for SA and Egypt! What we would need for the Release Party: 1. Debian Users 2. Debian users who can bake and theme a cake "debian squeeze" 3. Bring your bottle(s) - wine & spirits, beers, soda, water 4. Bring your laptops, netbooks - any number of blank CDs/DVDs you can lay your hands on 5. Music - dancehall, locals, techno, oldschool, new school(if there's such a thing) 6. A loud humorous skunkspokesperson - to be MC 7. Nyam Chom, Koroga, Sandwiches.... whatever anyone can contribute to get. What we would do: 1. Burn CD/DVDs from a reliable downloaded ISO source 2. When some people start getting a buzz or there's that level of noise indicating that people are socializing - then all the Debian users cut the cake and someone(probably the eldest, debian user) clicks on the Finish Installation button 3. Organize how the CDs/DVDs can be distributed throughout colleges and universities - emphasis on getting the new user to install the release(depending on the available hardware specs they have), use of 'different' internet browsers like iceweasel and word processing/spreadsheet apps - openoffice, abiword etc..etc installing wvdial and connecting their installations to the internet and Voila! - first African country to get listed here http://wiki.debian.org/ReleasePartySqueeze and have a successful release party On 2/7/11, Amarjit Labhuram <amarjit.labhuram@gmail.com> wrote:

I like that! Any other skunks and skunkettes interested in being part of this launch party? Lets try and get the logistics and see if this is doable. Have a great day! Warm regards, Amarjit Singh Labhuram. On Mon, Feb 7, 2011 at 11:53 AM, Patrick Kariuki <patrick.kariuki@gmail.com>wrote:

I'm in for Sunday. I'm not much of an organiser, so just let me know what to do. Joseph.

I think you will need NEMA licence for the noise... On 2/8/11, Joseph Wayodi <jwayodi@gmail.com> wrote:
